However, the Panone research found that just 37 per cent of those
surveyed support the introduction of these as a potential solution.
Mr Lister added: "Blatant acts of discrimination are far less common than
they once were and the vast majority of people believe - at least on a
conscious level - that everyone deserves equality of opportunity
regardless of any protected characteristics they may have."
Making Accommodations
In ruling on Title VII religion cases, the courts have held that employers aren't
required to accommodate employees' religious activities when it involves
increased financial costs, transferring supervisory personnel or employees
from other departments resulting in inefficiency, or discriminating against other
employees or violating seniority systems. Accommodations that don't
constitute undue hardship to the employer include voluntary substitutions or
employee "swaps," flexible work schedules, floating or optional holidays,
staggered work hours, and allowing employees to make up lost time.
Transfers and job changes also are options if they don't cause reduced
efficiency or other disruptions.
While technically not required to do so, an employer should always offer
accommodation suggestions before claiming undue hardship. When an
employer makes no suggestions, he or she must be able to prove that no
accommodation was possible. Similarly, the employee also should cooperate
with the employer in suggesting and accepting options for resolving the
conflict. What happens when both the employer and the employee suggest
reasonable accommodations? The courts have held that the employer has the
choice when there's more than one option.
Clearly, issues involving religion in the workplace are complex. Consider
consulting expert legal counsel to achieve a successful resolution.
into a fancy attire give it a thought about how the other person will see or what
the communication will be received.
2. Dress code in the workplace: Many organisations follow a strict dress code
of weekdays and weekends, along with that they have strict policies of no
visible tattoos or piercings. Every work has a certain structural requirement and
pattern to it, therefore, the dress code helps to create the first impression.
3. Respect the rules: Every organisation comes with the different set of rules.
The dress code in corporates signifies the uniformity in the system which is the
critical requirement. Not only that, it also has a psychological impact on
everyone working there to feel themselves in a similar way. While certain
organisations give freedom of choice that one would like to wear. But this is the
point one need to tread cautiously.
In corporate structure: Despite the fact that men have lesser options when it
comes to clothes, yet a lot is to be taken care of them in their appearance and
grooming. In corporate or business settings it is advisable to be clean shave and
have well trimmed hair, crisp shirt and trousers with polished shoes. Colors are
not to be flamboyant but simple yet smart.
In non corporate structure: In the creative field for example, in advertising,
the freedom and choice of dressing is more when compared to business
structures. But the main idea behind their appearance style is to bring out their
personality, infact the hygiene is still the core factor to be looked into.
5. Dress code for women:
8. Right kind of shoes: For men, keep your shoes polished, it shows the person
is balanced and is responsible enough. While for women, it is good to wear flats
if they are not comfortable with heels. If the footwear tend to make clicking
around on the floor it tends to create distraction in the office, hence it is good to
wear shoes which are comfortable and are not noisy.
per the few surveys done, while shaking hands people tend to notice the watch
the person is wearing.
10. Tuck the shirts in: Avoid leaving the shirt out, it is best to tuck them in as it
gives a cleaner look. While the shirt out is extremely messy and gives a very
casual attitude.
13. Work for the right fashion: Old is definitely gold, but that does not allow
the person to wear the grandmothers skirt or grandfathers coat. It is good to
dress up as per the standard social trends.
17. Usage of words: It is highly advised to avoid using the foul language while
in conversation. It not only spoils the professional relationship but also is
against the code of conduct of the organisation. It ruins the impression one
would have created among the peers in a fraction of seconds.
18. Voice modulation: As discussed for the language and words, the voice
modulation while in conversation with someone is also essential. Talking loudly
in office creates a bad impression or unnecessarily speaking in whispers is also
not appreciated.
